just like I said in the other thread, his usage of Ross and Samson is because he values "stops" & rotations alot more than made baskets.  It's old school coach bball stubbornness.   This roster will not ultimately be successful trying to be a lockdown overplay no help man to man team.  Too slow at too many positions.

Mahaney went from all -league to borderline unplayable at times bc of our defensive scheme, trying to fit players into what they cant do. It's like having a squad of Johnnie Selvie's and trying to run a 3 pt only offense.  It doesnt fit. Who is our lockdown defender? Outside of Hass, who is undersized, I dont think we have a good defender this year.  We aren't gonna wear down opponents with our defensive pressure, with Clingan to clear things out.  Instead we give up layups to bad big east teams like its our job at times bc of not adapting and overplaying with minus athletes, as we play to our opponents level. Pride goes before the fall.

Ross getting minutes over Stew is him not seeing what is.  I am among biggest Samson supporters, but Reed is a major post up option but not being consistently utilized because Dan wants to deny opposing center past the three pt line and do his high hedge.
